ADP via Sleeper. Rankings are per-game 9-cat value from our rankings, so injured players can rank above where they are drafted.

Common questions

What is ADP in fantasy basketball?

Average draft position: where a player is being taken on average across real drafts. These numbers come from Sleeper drafts for the 2026-27 season.

What does the gap column mean?

The difference between where a player is drafted and where our 9-cat rankings put him. A positive gap means he is valued higher than he is drafted, so he is a bargain in category leagues. Points leagues value players differently, so check the points rank too.
